So I'm turning 23 today, I took a couple days off work to travel to Stockholm. I've been playing some NL100 on ftp, I'll probably withdraw and deposit on another site, since I don't have rakeback on ftp.
Life is good, and Stockholm is going be sick, I'll try to update with some pics from Stockholm.
Oh and from the old sc days, )ls(honest and liquid.drone are turning 24 today if I remember correctly. - and George Clooney.
So the past 4 weeks or so, I've been constantly getting deep but never really all the way. Yesterday I managed to donk a 2nd place for $3.5k which was nice. Thanks alot fazi for helping me out (even though you fell asleep). Thanks to everyone else for the support too.
I managed to have probably the worst evening of my life. Some messed up stuff first that I dont want to go into. We took a cab from Malmö (in Sweden) over to Copenhagen (in Denmark), went to a nightclub there. I got pissed off one was fairly drunk so I decided to go back to Malmö. So I took a walk and somehow found the centralstation, I bought a package of ciggs and managed to loose my wallet, now I have 2 credit cards and 2 debit cards and basically my life in my wallet. So as soon as I notice that its gone I call a friend and ask him for all of the numbers so I can block my cards. Now, I'm alone at the train station with no money and no wallet. I somehow find $100 in my pocket, so I can pay for the train and the bus home, so the next train comes in like 30 mins, so I hop on and manage to fall asleep. I have this foreigner who is standing infront of me when I wake up in Malmö, im like wtf and proceed to get out. Then I remember, wait I didnt pay for the train (SHIP IT), I however look in my pocket for my money and it's not there anymore. So that guy stole money off of me. I however find like $10 in change for the bus, which is basically exactly what it costs. I take the bus home, and manage to wake up at the last station, the bus driver comes and wakes me up and asks me where I was supposed to get off, I tell him where, and he's like: "well I'm leaving in 20 mins so just fall asleep again". Suddenly he comes back and im like wtf? It turns out its been 30 minutes and Im at my bus stop. So I get off the bus and fall asleep in my bed at 10 am.
I wake up at 13am with 3 hours sleep feeling shit, and regretting the night before and everything I said to people, Im such a moron some times. So feeling like shit a friend asks if I wanna play cs, because they needed one more guy. So I'm like, im hungover and I dont really play any more but yeah ok. I end up playing fairly well for a change, and suddenly I get this phone call. So this danish guy found my wallet, and is like "dude your cards are safe, you can pick them up on monday". So im like, wow I run good. But all of my cards are blocked which is fucked up, and I was sort of pissed off because I really liked my wallet too (its a ralph lauren one).
So then fazi writes to me on msn wondering if I want to play any mtts, so I told him that yeah I'm going to play some. So he's like play the 300+22 6max in one hour and I'll stake you. I had slept like 3 hours and wasnt feeling very well, so I told him it would be -ev at this time. Some time goes and he's like there is a 100+9 starting in an hour, ill stake you if you want to play it. So I got itm, and shipped him back the 109.
Here are yesterdays mtts:
I am also looking for 200-300 on stars for ftp money - ill send first, most people will confirm that I am legit (PM for sources).
God, I haven’t updated in ages. So basically I shaved my head, I had pretty long hair before, so there is a difference:
I went over to visit my dad in Munich, Germany (No he’s not from Germany – he is ½ American ½ British). Which makes me ¼ American and ¼ British and ½ Swedish. Anyways it was alot of fun seeing my little brother and my twin sisters again, and ofcourse my dad and my stepmom too. My dad and I have alot of things in common, one of them is wine, so I brought a Margaux from 97 which we drank together – which was a decent wine, nothing very very fancy and I think it was around $100. I got a nice Bvlgari (read Bulgari) perfume for my stepmother, and some Wii sports rackets for my little brother.
Btw, if people want I can start blogging about various wines that I enjoy, and stuff to look for.
So I had a pretty strange night out in Munich. I went to meet a friend and his girlfriend (they are swedish, but his parents live in Munich – and we just happened to be in Munich at the same time). The two to the left
– the picture is taken from a swedish holiday called ”Valborg” when I celebrated in Uppsala, a univeristy city an hour away from Stockholm. It’s very big in Uppsala and in Lund, and the drinking is crazy. Its basically drinking 16 hours a day for like 3-4 days straight. This was from the ”Champagne” evening, where you buy Champagne and not really drink it but pour it over people. A really sick holiday in Sweden.
Anyways about the night out, so I went and met them and we started to drink some beer in an irish/australian pub in town. After a few beers I find myself needing to go the toilet, so I stand up and go over to the toilet, and outside of the toilet I see an old friend of mine whom I went to school with in Munich, so I say ”Hey – how are you doing”. He answers pretty casually ”alright”. So I was like, jeez what a dick. So I proceed to say it again, ”Hey man how are you”. Now he thinks I’m there to pick a fight with him, and I am a pretty big guy, and I was wearing an adidas England sweater/jacket. So I finally say, ”Alex, don’t you recognize me” – and then we started to drink together. So after a few hours my friends from Sweden go home, and I somehow meet this other swedish guy who is like 4-5 years older than me, and we went to the same school back in the days. So we’re standing in the stairs at the pub and out of the blue this swedish comes and says in swedish ”What – are you guys speaking swedish?? With a WTF expression on her face”. So we’re like yeah, and she says ”I’m here with two other swedish girls, come and sit with us”. So I’m like: ship it, and proceed to follow her to their table. My swedish friend seems to go to some other place and leaves me. So the girl in the stairs had a german boyfriends, but she was pretty ugly so it didnt really matter, and the other two were ok too. One was above decent and the other one decent (mind you – swedish standards). So I end up taking these girls to like 2-3 nightclubs and paying for their evening. So about $700 down for the evening I’m on my way back to my dads house, and I tell myself ”Chris, dont fall asleep like you always do, cos you got to go the airport soon”. 45 mins later I wake up on the train really satisfied when I look out of the window, because its my home town obviously. That happy feeling lasts for about 10 seconds when I realize I am at the last fucking station of my train line. So still fairly drunk and fairly pissed off of not shipping at least one of the girls (because of me having to leave for the airport), and being in a shithole town outside of Munich. I walk to the taxi that is closest and tell her to drive me home. My dad calls me and says that we have to leave for the airport in 30 mins. I explained the situation, and told him where I was and that I would be home in about 30 mins. I get home, go down to the cellar and get my bag, and leave for the airport with a cup of tea in the car.
This weekend was really sick too, I’ve been drunk since last Friday, and I woke uptoday pretty hungover, I missed out on the hangovers the other days since I started drinking as soon as I woke up. Ill update you guys about the weekend another day.
I think I’m getting into an iffy situation regarding the opposite sex, once again I’ll update more on that sistuation when I know more.

Since I used to play alot of HU’s sngs before, I played some NL HU, which was fun. Up on NL100 and NL200 HU, down on NL50 HU (LOL???????). Here are some hands:
http://www.liquidpoker.net/poker-forum/450092/Euro_LP_Meetup.html – Can people start planning? I will be there with my friends so its no biggy, but for the people that arent used to swedish partying (this is an experience). There are 600 people whom have confirmed, and 200 is the max number, obv my friends are prioritized, so start planning ASAP.
So I'm working in Copenhagen, and my office is just by the Casino, so thats pretty sweet. Ship it!
Anyways I went out and had dinner with sOah yesterday and that was fun meeting him, we went out and had a few drinks and I crashed the night at his place (thanks again Simon).
Today sOah and myself picked fazi up from the airport. I managed also to win the first propbet of the week against sOah (I run good) - ship it.
I'm looking foward to meeting the rest of the lpers coming down this week! It should be a good week.
locoo, Gummi, Hansen, Hansen Jr, luna_bluffgood and tomson (havent really spoken to the last two mentioned but should be good fun anyways). Oh and WiLLEt is also here so I'll try to meet up with him too. I'll try to update my blog with pics every day.
So I deposited 1k on betsson and I've been playing some mtt's and NL50. Its been going ok I guess. Life is good, im in my home town taking it easy. I still need to get my computer and some more stuff from my apartment in Stockholm.
I'll update my blog in the coming week with some more stuff regarding my personal life, and goals that I have set for 2008.
So I thought I would give you guys an update about my fall, what's been going on with my life, and poker related stuff. So I got back from a 2 week holiday in Chicago. September I traveled to Neuchâtel and went to a winefestival with a bunch of friends. I took a trip to Prague in November, and the last week I was in Chicago again.
So after feeling depressed for a bunch of reasons, I quit my job today and I'm moving back home to the south of Sweden, this is how they speak there:
I deposited some money onto crypto (parbet). Things started out good, and got a little rough, but shaped up again thanks to Stygg (thank you very much). I won a sat to a 13k grntd (50+5) tourney. I played it for about 30-45 mins and took the chiplead. I couldnt continue and had noone to ask, so I asked Stygg if he wanted to split it 50/50. He managed to donk a 4th place for $1500. I had to withdraw the money I put on my account cos I was leaving for the US. Anyways I got my rakeback whilst being in the US, I played a £20+2 on parbet and donked a 2nd place for like £230 and a played a short session of NL50. I have been beating NL50 with a decent winrate at parbet, and I am confident I can beat NL100 there too. I have been murdering tournies at crypto too, they suck. Stygg helped me withdraw the rest of my roll (thank you so much again) - and FUCK YOU NETELLER FOR BEING FUCKING INCOMPETENT PRICKS.
I went to my first concert (LOL?) and saw Muse too in Stockholm, pretty awesome concert. When I move back home I want to do a bunch of stuff, start taking poker more seriously (Got a goal to be at NL200 in feb), I gotta start working out, I want to get back into acting and into music again. Im gonna deposit $1k for NL50 after x-mas and murder it. Im gonna see what joboffers I get (last time I looked for a new job I got like 25 joboffers within like 2 weeks), and do some studying on the side, and maybe go and study an engineering degree next fall. Or maybe I'll be murdering NL50 and do a Saki and run good and beat NL400 within like 4 weeks (Ok you did NL100 to NL2000 in 4 months?).
I would like to say thank you to: Stygg (for and foremost for coaching me at NL50 too), Saki, hansen, and hansen jr for answering all my pokerquestions and being pretty cool cats.
Here's a song that I like:
Oh and Lee Jones please let me donk an mtt again <3
